How it works?

1)Your client access your whmcs order form and select a package.

2)The order form will ask for a subdomain and check if its valid or not. In case its not valid he will receive an error message with the reason (for example the subdomain “tes”):

subdomain error

3)Your client make an order and pay the invoice 4)The livedrive account is created and you client will receive an email with login instructions

== UPGRADE OPTIONS ==

Theres only 3 upgrade options available in livedrive

Backup->Backup&Briefcase(Pro) (add briefcase to backup)

Backup&Briefcase->Backup&Briefcase (briefcase size upgrade)

Any product -> Any product(client limit and NAS clients)

To configure upgrade plans check http://docs.whmcs.com/Automated_Upgrades_and_Downgrades

NOTE: You can't upgrade a size in a backup account, only in briefcase.

== FAQ ==

1)When i create a product i get a random subdomain

If the subdomain is used or not allowed, the module will generate a random valid subdomain, also check that your custom field is called “subdomain”.

2) I would like to use the whmcs client username/password for my livedrive account

There's no way to get the whmcs client password since its encrypted.

3) When i add a second livedrive account to my whmcs client i get a “username in use” error

Livedrive api only allow emails as usernames and the module use the whmcs client email as username. When you add 2 livedrive accounts the second one will also try to use the whmcs client email and thats the reason you get that error. The module cant use random emails since its useless specially if the client try to reset his password in the livedrive panel. Im aware its a problem and as soon i find a valid fix i will update it, meanwhile if you want more than livedrive account in 1 whmcs client you must set the username manually in the second account before creation.

4) When i delete an account and try to create it again i get a "username in use" error but theres no such username in my livedrive account anymore

It takes a few minutes for livedrive to free the username in their cluster.
